Monotone is a distributed revision control system.
Ikiwiki supports storing a wiki in a Monotone repository and editing it
using the [[cgi]] interface. It will use the Monotone logs to generate the
[[RecentChanges]] page.
The monotone support in ikiwiki requires the Monotone perl module to be
installed. (It's available from the contrib/ directory in the monotone
source.) In particular, it needs version 0.03 or higher of that module.
The module is available from the monotone source repository at:
http://viewmtn.angrygoats.net/branch/changes/net.venge.monotone
Monotone support works, but there are still a few minor missing bits (listed here so they are not forgotten):
- The [[post-commit]] hook support is not yet completly implemented.
- Documentation (this page) could be improved.
There is also a mismatch between the way Ikiwiki handles conflicts and the
way Monotone handles conflicts. At present, if there is a conflict, then
Ikiwiki will commit a revision with conflict markers before presenting it
to the user. This is ugly, but there is no clean way to fix it at present.
